I will not be a slave.

by Lacie   Jul 7, 2008


All my life i helped them,
All my life i cared.

All my life i did what I could,
But still to them i am not here.

I slave and push and try so hard,
To do my very best.

But in there hearts and in there minds,
I fall short of the rest.

It's hard to grow up all your life,
And do all that you can,

Only to be told "its not good enough"
Like my life is in there hands.

Some day i will leave this place,
And jump abord a plain,

I will go to england,
I wont be a slave.
